Description:
- Engraving of Verona, from the stone bridge, in Italy
- The stone bridge of Verona is Roman, built over the Adige river to replace an earlier wooden bridge, and is the oldest Roman monument in the city.
- All titles and signatures are outside the plate. The Draughtsman is unknown.
- In the upper right-hand corner it is printed with the number '7', which suggests that the engraving is the number 7 in a series.
- In the upper margin it has the legend 'Italien - Italia - Italie'.
- In the lower margin, in the centre, the Engraver signs as Lemaitre, Direxit.
- In the lower margin it also has the legend 'Verona - Verone - Verona - Bepoha'.
- Intaglio engraving, although a different technique could have been used
- It is probably an engraving belonging to a book.
Conservation and damage:
- General condition: Good.
- The Engraving has a paper of fine thickness and regular quality, glued by the corners to another paper.
- Made in black monochrome tone, very good ink and good printing.
- The margins are sufficient but uneven, with the edges being irregularly cut, so the top side of the paper does not keep the parallel to its opposite side and the same goes for the sides.
- The engraving has suffered from humidity, so the paper has damp spots and rust spots.
- The Engraving is dirty, if it is slightly washed and bleached, the result would be very good.
Comments:
- The measurements are approximate.
- Engraving is ideal as a collector's item and a decorative element.
- The fact that the engraving has a distinctive mark or contrast is very important in order to identify data such as the engraver, the artist, the place where it was printed and other details.
- Because it is inevitable that there will be differences in tones between photos and reality, you should bear in mind that the tones of the colours in the photos are not exactly the same as the tones of the real colours.
- The Engraving on sale is the one that corresponds to the photos, which in turn are complemented in this Description, with the aim of providing a better knowledge of the Object, and never being a detailed exhibition of it.
- The data provided here are not contrasted personal opinions.
